You will have to downgrade to CHIRP daily-20140714 and upload the
original CHIRP Radio Image (*.img) backup file that you saved as soon
as you downloaded from the radio for the first time. Once restored,
you should immediately upgrade back to the most recent CHIRP daily
build.

If you didn't make and original backup, follow the instructions here.
